Are you trying to cross the line from platonic to romantic?<\/p>\n
We’ve all been there:\u00a0falling in love with a best friend. Rejection sucks, but learning to tell these signs for what they really are \u2014 that friendship is becoming more \u2014 is sure to save you from much heartache, especially when you know the\u00a0difference between a friendship and relationship.<\/p>\n
If you\u00a0feel an emotional bond with\u00a0your best friend, and you feel that it is mutual and has potential to last “forever,” be prepared to face rejection and possibly lose him or her. However, if it’s really THAT strong of a connection, then it’ll be reciprocated, which might make it all worth it.<\/p>\n
Sometimes, this is your only choice.\u00a0Because if you’re crazy about someone who was once just a best friend, you won’t want to be in the friend-zone.<\/p>\n If it does become a relationship, prepare for the dynamics of the relationship to change entirely. It likely won’t be as laid-back as the friendship; jealousy might come into the mix,\u00a0and if either or both of you are dramatic or very sensitive, prepare to face the music.<\/p>\n If you choose to cross this proverbial line, you have to be smart enough to weigh all the possibilities, both negative and positive.\u00a0Be honest and upfront with yourself. Sex should be the last act on your mind when you’re with your best friend.<\/p>\n So, to make sure you’re not riding that (really thin) line and understand the real\u00a0difference between a friendship and relationship, here\u00a0are 18 signs to keep you on the straight and narrow:<\/p>\n 1.
